Episode 1 Recap

There were quite a few interesting reveals on last week's episode and here's a recap of the best moments in case you missed it:

--P.K. Subban is as annoying off the ice as he is on it -- at least when it comes to fashion. The ridiculous red fur coat he wore in Episode 1 has to be seen to be believed:

--Max Pacioretty isn't shy about his hatred for Boston. Growing up in Connecticut, the Canadiens forward rooted for New York sports teams, so he has some extra motivation to beat the Bruins in the Winter Classic.

--Zdeno Chara is a very interesting dude off the ice. The huge defenseman revealed that he prefers to walk and ride his bike through the city of Boston rather than drive his car.
